About this product

Product Information

He ran with teenage gangs in Brooklyn before becoming a global rock star in the Summer of Love. He was managed by the mob, hung with Hendrix, trashed thousands of hotel rooms, unwittingly paid for an unknown Led Zeppelin to support him on tour, taught John Bonham (as well as Fred Astaire) a thing or two about drumming, and took part in Zeppelin's infamous deflowering of a groupie with a mud shark. After enrolling in Rod Stewart's Sex Police, he hung out with Kojak, accidentally shared a house with Prince, became blood brothers with Ozzy Osbourne, and got fired by Sharon. He formed an all-blond hair metal band, jammed with John McEnroe and Steven Seagal, became a megastar in Japan, got married five times, slept with 4,500 groupies--and, along the way, became a rock legend by single-handedly reinventing hard rock and heavy metal drumming. Carmine Appice has enjoyed a jaw-dropping rock-and-roll life--and here he is telling his scarcely believable story. Cowritten with Ian Gittins, the coauthor with Nikki Sixx of the New York Times bestseller The Heroin Diaries , Stick It is one of the most extraordinary and outrageous rock-and-roll biographies of our time.

Reviews
"You can always count on drummer Carmine Appice to tell it like it is." --Glide Magazine "This book looks back and lets it all hang out. Go get it." --Maximum Ink, "Carmine Appice's name is indelibly written into the history of heavy rock drumming. He is in that untouchable few who, by defining the genre at the beginning, enabled rock music to be what it is today" --Brian May, Queen, "Carmine was the first. Everyone borrowed from him, John Bonham for one. And every other drummer around who started using double bass drums. Along with Ginger Baker and Keith Moon, he is drum royalty. In other words, he helped pave the way." --Marky Ramone, "From Vanilla Fudge forward, Carmine's impact on his contemporaries has been undeniable and his influence on future drummers assured." --Paul Stanley, "Like legendary drummer Gene Krupa thirty years before him, Carmine Appice is an American original. His thundering beat led the march for all the drummers who heard him and followed him--including John Bonham and me. Why, I even grew a Fu Manchu mustache when I was eighteen so I could look like Carmine. His influence as a musician, songwriter, music book writer, clinician, and rockand- roll personality continues to be felt worldwide. If you want to know what life as a rock star is like, read this book!" --Max Weinberg, "[Appice's] personable and curious nature, to say nothing of the book's swift, pummeling rhythm (like his drumming), makes Stick It! engaging." -- The Philadelphia Inquirer, "Not only is Carmine Appice one of the most gifted drummers to ever live, he is a grand gentleman that I can count on to be there no matter what. We who love real American soul music bow at the altar of Carmine and salute and thank him for enriching our lives and musical dreams. Thank you, Carmine, for forty-eight rockin' years so far!" --Ted Nugent, "[I] spent many a bleary-eyed night because I just had to read one more chapter ... and then another one." --Classicalite

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

    If you like Rock and Roll, drums, rock history, and a bit of sex, you will enjoy Stick It!

    I enjoyed this book by Carmine Appice. He's certainly a self promoter, but he does have a legendary career, and certainly has a story to tell. There are two things I really liked about this book. First, most autobiographies start with a whole lot about the authors childhood, and the reader doesn't care. Carmine's childhood was interesting, and he didn't spend a whole lot of time of pre-drums Carmine. The second objection I have from autobiographies is they tend to jump around in time. This was not a problem. Other than the first chapter where he talks about being hired and fired by Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne, chapter two begins with his childhood and the book continues perfectly chronologically. I appreciated that. There's a lot of sex and infidelity in this book. He claims to have Gene ...
